Mohd Rafi Forum Issue.

In the past few days this board has seen unwanted, unwarranted stir in Rafi forum and COC. Despite changing the rules of this board, members here do not seem to comply nor take care when they post on any sensitive issues and matters. Personal snide remarks coming in from both parties involved. New threads appearing to protest or to prove a point. This board has tolerated all these events and only WARNED you all, with a broad perspective of being liberal, to allow you to make amends to your approach to several aspects and topics involved.

Some of the neutral members who have been observing the activity have voiced their concern and their messages were forwarded to the Administration, which has deferred the action that was to be taken against some of the members here. This is how the situation has been seen, keeping in mind the years of membership you all hold here -

" To the members who have been involved in the controversy - Removing your posting rights, moderating you or banning you would mean that all the past few years' contributions from your end would bear no value or meaning." If you are ready to forsake it, and continue to post in the manner you all have been, action against you all will be taken immediately irrespective of the status you hold on this board. The under-mentioned members will be under observation as of today.

Members who will be under observation (alphabetical order) - Bawlachintu, Binod, Nasir, Prince Ali, Sajdah, and Venkat. (List posted - as per the reports made against you all)

Any further posts triggering the issue that has been surfacing from time to time over the past 3 days, action will be taken immediately and the action will not be REVOKED.

Member Yob - You should comply by extra rules which have been laid ONLY FOR YOU, apart from those mentioned in the guidelines. You have been excused each time for your unwarranted posts in sensitive issues, despite having been given several warnings to stay away from these issues and been instructed to use the REPORT Link to raise your objection and that you should only concentrate on your credible contribution. Your promises to adhere by the instructions given to you, are broken each time. Remember you HAVE to build your credibility here and that SHOULD BE the priority. This board and administration has been more than FAIR to you.

You violated the SPECIAL ORDER put on you. YOU DID NOT USE THE REPORT LINK as directed to you earlier. On reviewing your case again, in the recent happenings, you are relieved from moderation which was imposed ONLY because you broke the SPECIAL ORDER put on you. Make an effort to concentrate on your contributions and if you find anything objectionable, JUST REPORT THE POST. THERE SHOULD BE NO MORE THREADS/POSTS ON THIS BOARD IN THIS REGARD.

Member Bawlachintu - You are WARNED AGAINST starting threads to prove a point to members whose opinions you object. This board is for all and opinions from all are welcomed. The restriction is only on how one posts the opinion without hurting the sentiments of the fans and members here in general. Member Binod and Member Venkat- You are both WARNED to keep your personal dislikes for each other off the board, which is visible in several of your posts.

Member Princeali, Nasir, Venkat and Sajdah - You are hereby WARNED and INSTRUCTED to refrain from bringing up topics and details that can stir and fuel unwanted reactions on the board.
